Viva Technology 2017: the artificial intelligence start-ups you need to see

Today marks the launch of the second edition of Viva Technology, a 3-days hub where startups, tech lovers and innovators meet. It’s the occasion to have a glimpse at what the next years will look like, and to meet some cute talking robots along the way. The numbers are quite impressive: 5000 startups are presenting their vision of the future to no less than 50000 attendees. Even the freshly elected french President Emmanuel Macron was there!

We spend an hour on the field meeting great startups, and I’d like to share with you a selection of our favorite ones focusing on artificial intelligence.
